Lam Dong Police launch campaign to ensure peaceful Tet for people

MPS - Another spring has come. Despite many difficulties and hardships, the Lam Dong Police Force has strived to ensure security and order in the locality and a peaceful Lunar New Year festival for local people.

A majority of the residents of the remote district of Lam Ha (Lam Dong Province) are of ethnic minorities or immigrants from other places. This has made the local security situation more complicated. To grasp the situation, local police officers often come to villages to eat, to live and to work together with local residents.

According to Lieutenant Colonel Tran Van Tra, Deputy Head of the Lam Ha District Police, in recent years, many criminal cases, including theft, robbery, illegal gambling and even murder occurred in the locality.

Leaders of the Lam Ha Police Force has drafted out a detailed plan and assigned each team of police officers with specific tasks, in order to prevent and fight crimes and social evils, protecting a peaceful Tet holiday for local people.

According to the Di Linh District Police Division, "black credit" is a form of self-negotiated civil loan contracts with extremely high interests. The local investigation agency faces many difficulties to handle this kind of crime. Beside, "black credit" loans usually involve criminal gangs participating in usury or illegal debt collections.

In order to ensure absolute safety for people and visitors during the Lunar New Year festival 2019, the Da Lat Municipal Police Sub-Department (Lam Dong Province) also launched a campaign to attack crimes, especially social order crime, drug-related crime, and smuggling and counterfeit goods.
